Crystal Ball
Do we live our lives in moderation?
Does this appear
When youre around?
And the deeper in debt
The harder the bet
Your thoughts are one of a clown
Look out before you sign
Your soul away
The crystal ball, it seems
Is not reading to - reading today
Does the time seem right
For some rethinking?
It seems a gift that you have
Are you living a dream
Of express progress?
Its just a thought that you have
Oh, you shouldve know better
When the warning light was lit
As it did for others
You preach a sermon
When you talk of the messiah
We are yet to discover
Thinkin, lovin, feelin
But disbelievin ...

That Loving You Feeling Again
(orbison/c.price)
(roy): when I saw you standing there on the street,
I found myself by your side.
I started wanting you again;
Theres just no way to hide
From that old lovin you feelin again,
Its really got me reelin again.
It only seems to stop
To start all over again with you.
(emmy): I remember how you always get
That certain look in your eye.
Youre not easy to resist,
But I just walked on by
With that old lovin you feelin again.(lovin you feelin)
Its really got me reelin again.(lovin you)
It only seems to stop
To start all over again with you, (lovin you feelin)
(both): lovin you feelin with you.
(roy): we were so close.
(emmy): we were too far apart.
(roy): I gave you my love.
(emmy): I wanted your heart.
(both): without yesterday caught in the way,
Maybe wed still be together,
Sharing that lovin you feelin again.
Its really got me reelin again.
Will it ever stop and not start over again,
That lovin you feelin again? .
No matter how much I try,
This lovin you feelin is why
Its taken such a long, long time
To say goodbye.
And getting over you.is so hard to do
With this feeling loving you.
That lovin you feelin again,
Lovin you feelin again...
That lovin you feelin again
Lovin you feelin again...
That lovin you feelin again
Lovin you feelin again...
That lovin you feelin again
Lovin you feelin again...

Can This Be Real?
Your face, my door
Havent we both been here before
Sightless no more
No vision so high
Your touch, my hand
Suspecting that I understand
Night stands passin
Im askin, your life
Can this be real ?
Can this be lovin feelin
Can this be a dream that fades a morning light
Can this be real ?
Can this be lovin feelin
Are you what you seem, will you be real tonight
Ouick turn, long stares
Is that a shadow or are there
You feel so real
But is this confusion
Ooh your voice soft and low
Comes in my ear and breezes that blow
No choice I knew
I ask my illusions
Can this be real ?
Can this be lovin feelin
Can this be a dream that fades a morning light
Can this be lovin feelin
Are you what you seem, will you be real tonight
Night goes and days here
I can still remember the taste of the tear
I still face a cold stare
The essence of someone is constantly here
Can this be real ?
I can almost feel your touch
But youre not there
This - and I need you in the end, yeah, oh
Can this be real ?
Can this be lovin feelin
Can this be a dream that fades a morning light
Can this be lovin feelin
Are you what you seem, will you be real tonight
Your face, my door
Havent we both been here before

Stifle not the reader
Reading is an art,
reading is a tool.
Those who think it dumb,
must be such a fool.
Reading is enjoyment,
reading is a blast.
Reading is a separate entity
from the future and the past.
Reading is done in present,
though written in a tense.
Reading is about life,
in surprise or suspense.
Reading is a place of joy,
full of hope and song,
Reading is a place I feel
that I truly do belong.
A trapdoor to a fantasy,
A world thought lost to us,
Reading is a place of wonder,
a place that we can trust.
Why read about reality,
when I can delve into magic.
Why stifle my own happiness,
with scenarios so tragic.
Stifle not the reader,
for it is their choice alone.
Reading is an outlet,
for hearts that turned to stone.
Living the Dream
What would it be like to live the dream
People reading my poems and knowing what they mean
What would it be like to live the dream
Every where I went people knowning who they seen
What would it be like to live the dream
Be like shakespear or someone talented I don’t even come near
What would it be like to live the dream
Without living everyday wanting to scream
What would it be like to live the dream
At only the age that I am 18
What would it be like to live the dream
Of being happy in life and working with a team
What would it be like to live the dream
Get my work out there and people would care
What would it be like to live the dream
of being famous and hearing people scream
what would it be like to live the dream
people reading my poems and knowing what they mean

We live in us many dreams and desires that will become reality in a beautiful day.
Reading is the true bridge of the dream:it saves us, makes us human, equal, reading we listen to how the dream flourishes in us.

Youve Lost That Lovin Feelin
(words & music by mann - weil)
You never close your eyes
Anymore when I kiss your lips
Theres no tenderness
Like before in you fingertips
Youre trying hard not to show it,
But baby, baby I know it
Youve lost that lovin feelin, oh that lovin feelin
Youve lost that lovin feelin, now its gone, gone, gone
Theres no tenderness in your eyes
When I reach out for you
Girl, youre starting to criticize
Every little thing I do
It makes me just feel like crying
cause baby, something beautifuls dying
Youve lost that lovin feelin, oh that lovin feelin
Youve lost that lovin feelin, now its gone, gone, gone
Baby, baby, I get down on my knees for you
If you would only love me like you used to do
We had a love, love, love, love affair every day
Oh dont, dont, dont, dont take it away
Listen to me, talkin to you
Bring back that lovin feelin, oh, that lovin feelin
Bring back that lovin feelin, now its gone, gone, gone
And I cant go on

Crystal Ball
Written by tommy shaw
Lead vocals by tommy shaw
I used to like to walk the straight and narrow line
I used to think that everything was fine
Sometimes Id like to sit and gaze for days through sleepless dreams
All alone and trapped in time
All alone and trapped in time
I wonder what tomorrow has in mind for me
Or am I even in its mind at all
Perhaps Ill get a chance to look ahead and see
Soon as I find myself a crystal ball
Soon as I find myself a crystal ball
Tell me, tell me where Im going
I dont know where Ive been
Tell me, tell me, wont you tell me
And then tell me again
My heart is breaking, my bodys aching
And I dont know where to go
Tell me, tell me, wont you tell me
Ive just got to know
Crystal ball
Theres so many things I need to know
Crystal ball
Theres so many things Ive got to know
Crystal ball
[extra verse used occasionally live]
If you should see me walking
Through your dreams at night
Would you please direct me
Where I ought to be
Ive been looking for a crystal ball
To shed the light
To find a future in me...
To find a future in me...
Crystal ball
Theres so many things I need to know
Crystal ball
Theres so many things Ive got to know

Return To Sanctity
When allergy symptoms become unbearable I
always end up sitting cross-legged on my bed
reading the Bible - Proverbs and Ecclesiastes
the Sermon on the Mount and Ephesians, if
feeling adventurous a quick detour to one
Corinthians thirteen
Why love is more important than faith and hope
though I believe wisdom is required to apply love
correctly – without it, love becomes impractical
even faith and hope only acquire value if led by
wisdom as blind faith and false hope are sign-
posts leading nowhere
After reading everything prescribed and required
and all that appeals to me; I return to the sanctity
in the words of the scribes to rest my mind, taking
my thoughts on a religious journey to calm
my soul and release my feelings...

Some Notes About You
reading what you have
written
excites me.
I salute your
sweetness in
being candid to every word.
reading one poem leads to
another
until i get to know you
every hair lock
every nail
bite.
and then i experience
not just the
high of your thoughts
but the
fear too, that i can be soon like
you
lost, sad, and in pain.
and so today i call it quits.
after reading you
it feels like visiting Beijing
and then
promising myself that
i shall not return
to such place
again.
there is this exhaustion,
that rises above
the respect for what is old and
miserable.

If My Heart Were A Ball It Would Roll Uphill
Did you ever fall in love
Did you ever fall in love
Did you ever fall in love
Did you ever dream of falling
If my heart were a ball
It would roll uphill
We are alone in the world
We must do what we feel we should
We are told what is right
Need hurts within us
We can see sense
We can feel what feels right
And so often
All these things are not at all the same
Theyre not at all the same
If my heart were a ball
It would roll uphill
If my heart were a ball
It would roll uphill
Did you ever dream of running
And find you couldnt move
Did you ever dream of running
Running scared
Ankle deep in glue
With the monster after you
And its catching up
Monsters catching up
And its catchin up and youre going nowhere
And youre slowin up and you cant wake up
And its catchin up
And youre going nowhere wake up wake up
Youre falling..
If my heart were a ball
It would roll uphill
Did you ever see a shadow
Cast against your bedroom wall
Crooked shadow in the lamplight
Ten feet tall
Did you ever dream of falling
And find you couldnt move
Did you give up.
And discover that you havent given up
Did you ever dream of falling
Did you ever fall in love
Hard ball dream love now roll
Fall clown stain truth space time
Race give black white all one
Church state God fast as I could cry
Laugh hide feel no clouds will
To win sweet seed you me
Hard ball dream love now roll
Fall clown stain truth space time
Never do that, never do that
Will to win, will to win, never do that
Give black white all one wild
Church state now roll
Fall clown stain truth space time
Race fruit
Give
Never do that
If my heart were a ball it would roll uphill
All one insane wild sweet heart
Wild rose
Did you ever fall in love? ..

I Thought It Took A Little Time (But Today I Fell In Love)
(m. masser/p. sawyer)
Am I really hard to please ?
Perhaps I have such special needs
I wondered what was wrong with me
My friends all fall so easily
But today I fell in love with someone I hardly know
Did I make myself imagine that he could love me so ?
cause the feeling was so unexpected
I could hardly keep myself collected
I thought it took a little time to learn about lovin
Never did believe in lovin on sight
I thought it took a little time to learn about lovin
All I know is now its gotta be right
In the midst of conversation he looked into my eyes
And all through the conversation
Much to my own surprise
Half the words he said to me were missin
cause my mind was so intend on kissin
I thought it took a little time to learn about lovin
Never did believe in lovin on sight
I thought it took a little time to learn about lovin
All I know is now its gotta be right
Am I really hard to please ?
Perhaps I have such special needs
I wondered what was wrong with me
My friends all fall so easily
But today I fell in love with someone I hardly know
Did I make myself imagine that he could love me so ?
And the feelin was so deep inside me
I could feel it when he brushed beside me
I thought it took a little time to learn about lovin
Never did believe in lovin on sight
I thought it took a little time to learn about lovin
All I know is now its gotta be right

Baby I Need Your Lovin
(holland, dozier, holland)
Baby I need your lovin
Baby I need your lovin
Although youre never near
Your voice I often hear
Another day, another night
I long to hold you tight
cause Im so lonely
Baby, I need your lovin
I got to have all your lovin
Baby, I need your lovin
Got to have all your lovin
Some say its a sign of weakness
For a man to beg
Then weak Id rather be
If it means havin you to keep
cause lately Ive been losin sleep
Baby, I need your lovin
I got to have all your lovin
Baby, I need your lovin
Got to have all your lovin
Empty nights
Echo your name
Sometimes I wonder
Will I ever be the same
Oh yeah, when you see me smile
You know
Things have gotten worse
Any smile you might see
Has all been rehearsed
Darlin, I cant go on without you
This emptiness wont let me live without you
This loneliness inside me darlin
Makes me feel not alive, honey
Baby, I need your lovin
I got to have all your lovin
Baby, I need your lovin
Got to have all your lovin
Baby, I need your lovin
I got to have all your lovin
Baby, I need your lovin
Got to have all your lovin

Tell Me Why
Cmon tell me what you thinkin
I can see that look in your eyes
Baby give me all your reasons
Just why you feel we need to say good-bye
Youre tired of the endless aggravation
I tried to give you everything I could
Youre makin love to someone who, girl is just a fool for you
He doesnt treat you like this lover could
Id swim across the ocean just to hear you call my name
You lost that lovin feelin, and you say Im to blame
Tell me why girl youre saying that were through
I need a lot of lovin and I want it all from you
Tell me why girl you dont feel the same
Lost that lovin feelin, and you say Im to blame
Tell me why
You were lookin for a little conversation
Baby I heard every word you said
Lovin me would always be forever
Whats goin on inside your pretty head
Girl youve got me wrapped around your finger
You know theres nothin that I wouldnt do
Take a chance on our romance I want to be the man
Spends each night makin love to you
Id dig a hole to china, to get one kiss from you
You say Im the reason for your passive attitude

Dont You
I could tear your walls down as I chip at who you are now
Dont you
You ever let me know how
And I could break your heart down as I tell you that youve burned out
Dont you
You want to let it go
Oh, I might scream and shout now as I feel you pressing down on
Dont you
You walk upon my heels now
You walk on
And I should call your soul out but I feel Ive gained control now
Dont you
You tell me what to do as you
You twist and turn your thoughts around
Oh, this road its getting long
Stones, dont you
Theyre getting harder and youre slipping slowly further
Youre slipping slowly further
Youre slipping further than youve been before
But I dont need to know how
And I dont need to blow out your candle
Its only burning at both ends
But your moods they wash away
No need to dose your eyes today
You just take your
Your deeper breath youre going
Your deeper breath youre going
Under this time
Its under this time
You, youve got to go now
Wont you, youve got to go not
And dont you, you know it
Dont you, you know it
Youve got to go now
Dont you, youve gotta go now
